tv   Lou Dobbs Tonight  FOX Business  January 28, 2013 10:00pm-11:00pm EST

10:00 pm
republicans yet never hear about any solution other than america voted for obama. we need to demand solutions. arrive from texas, no more reform, no more income tax, flat, or otherwise. passed a fair tax, tax consumption, not income, taxing income is counterproductive. and it does thank you for your optimistic outlook for america. needed a lift. glass half full, my friend. finally, another example of waste, fraud, and abuse. this time from louisiana. a local newspaper in danvers talking about a little-known state law that will make residents pay more at the grocery store. alysian requires that grocers markup milk prices 6% above the invoice and shipping costs, 6%. a local store called fresh market has a weekly special, gallons of milk for $2.99 each and every tuesday. not anymore. the state is worried such deals to drive competitors out of business.
10:01 pm
isn't that what free-market are about? if they want to compete, lower prices. if not, what consumers walk up the door. that's my "2 cents more." it's obvious. coming in tomorrow, president obama's says deficit reduction is not a goal unto itself. shouldn't it be? of every action. that's it for tonight on "the willis report." thank you for joining us. have a great night, and we will see right back he tomorrow. ♪ lou: good evening, everybody. a lot to cover tonight. the white house ha made it clear for some time that the initiative to change immigration laws and the status of more than 11 million people in this country illegally would be a priority this year and, today that effort began in earnest. but the public bush did not originate at the white house but rather in the senate. for eight senators launched what they hope will be ultimately a grand bargain to change immigration laws and the immigration system itself
10:02 pm
the plan, based on accomplishing these four goals, securing the borders, creating an effective employment verification system that would ensure businesses don't hire illegal immigrants to create the visa programs for skilled, highly educated workers to establish an agricultural worker program, and then establish a pathway to citizenship for those iegal immigrants who deserve the opportunity in their judgment. well, new york democrat senator chuck schumer calling the bipartisan blueprint a major breakthrough. he claimsis fellow democrats are not looking to play politics with this plan. >> we do not want immigration as a wage issue. much rather we want a bipartisan bill that solves the problem and becomes law. it is our hope that these principles can be turned into legislation by march and have a markup by chairman leahy with
10:03 pm
the goal of passage out of the senate by late spring or summer. lou: senator mccain bluntly acknowledged the republican party has been losing support of hispanic voters and says this agreement will change all that. >> the republican party is losing the support of our hispanic citizens. and we realize that in many issues which we think we are in agreement with our hispanic citizens, you will find that this agreement has very little difference from that of the legislation that was led by senator kennedy some years ago. lou: meanwhile, we will be joined by one of the leaders of the efforts to, working for a year on the republican proposal, adamantly opposing amnesty. he says, this plan closely mirrors his alternative to the democratically backed. >> translator: to. >> principles, i think, are, quite frankly, very similar if not the same. is the reason why i signed on to
10:04 pm
this, and it is a pretty straightforward principle is as we have to modernize legal immigration, have a real enforcement mechanism to ensure we and every year in the future. lou: the senator will be here to give us his judgment on the plan and his role in leading the republican effort to win support about the senate and house of representatives. our first guest tonight says the gang of eight commemoration plant, immediate, unconditional and right amnesty, but the republicans after the last election will not oppose it any longer. joining us now, manhattan institute fellow, city journal contributing editor to matter it -- heather macdonald. outright amnesty. those used to be fghting words in this country. they are no longer such? >> well, it is called probationary status, which is a euphemism for amnesty. immediately grants probationary status to the illegal aliens in the country, which grants them the right to be here until some future point.
10:05 pm
basically it's functional legalization. lou: as we believe, just about every one of those senators use the expression defacto amnesty. because of what is happening in this country in various states illegally year get mortgages in many states and originate with a lot of banking institutions, major institutions. it is the fact no amnesty. it is a reality that is being recognized, apparently now by both parties. lou: that is an interesting point, and it undercuts the notion that illegal aliens living in the shadows. in fact, this is not so onerous of conditions. a problem with official amnesty is the moral hazard problem. that is, it acts as a magnet to people who are considering coming in because they know that if they just did in the border
10:06 pm
at some point they will gain official legal status. lou: and the issue of bringing and attracting more illegal and rents and the number of 11 million which we are using here tonight, that rises to 20 million in some estimates. what is your estimate of the number of illegal immigrants in this country? 40 percent of films are presumed to be over staged on vises. also about 80 percent originating from mexico, central america, south america. >> thehe vast majority, of cour, the biggest block comes from mexico. and we have a very close relationship, but it's also a prlem that we have a border that is very close. california is a bus of the future. the population that is not seceding educationally.
10:07 pm
california governor recently the 31 their redistribute middle-class funding to schools with high proportion of english fliers because they are not succeeding. an english lender in california, somebody who has been here all his life, but his academic skills are so low that he has officially designated as a non english speaker. this is a population that is very low educated, the highest proportion of people without high-school diplomas and our country are illegals, and it is not what we need to a vance economically. i was disappointed that arubia, in his earlier, famous interview in the wall street journal proposed as part of this package moving officially toward an immigration system that gets priority to skill rather than family reunification. that idea has dropped out completely of a gang of a plan, which suggests to me that it is a nonstarter and that what we're doing is confirming and corroborating the existing status quo. lou: it will be interesting to
10:08 pm
see. i will be talking with the senator here very shortly. and i will ask him about that. and on your behalf as well as the rest of us because it is an important question. the country has lost sight of how to read effectively administer an immigration program based upon the nation's needs. we have an unemployment rate at 10%. we bring in legally and illegally the same number of immigrants as the unemployment -- as if the umpires were 5%. we will take that up but the senator as well. it's your judgment and that this bipartisan effort this time, unlike 2007 will succeed? >> it will. the election has scared republicans. hispanic, as the term goes. and i think that they believe that if they can get the immigration issue off of the public agenda they will win over the large section of the hispanic population as a public -- republican voters. i am skeptical of that is the
10:09 pm
motivation. lou: skeptical to the point that you think that the republicans are consigned to perfidy from a few well, as a result of their policies, principles, ground game, and no benefit at all then significant benefit with hispanic american voters. >> they should make the case for free markets as vigorously as they possibly can. up to now the overwhelming reason that hispanics have been drawn to the democratic party is big government and taxes, which the support. lou: thank you for being here. >> thank you. lou: much more on the bipartisan senate immigration plan. we will be talking with one of its architect, one of the republican leaders. joining us in just moments. ♪ lou: the arabs bring violence second act deadly clashes, states of emergency. egyptian government cannot keep order. former u.s. ambassador to the united nations john bolton, a pulitzer prize winner jewett to

♪ lou: a federal appellate court friday ruled president obama violated the constitution when he made three recess appointments to the national labor relations board. my guest, served on the nlrb and served as its chairman as one of two members on the board until in 2010 the supreme court declared the board could not authorize rulings with fewer than three members. joining me now is the former chairman of the nlrb.
10:14 pm
good to have you here. there is great irony here in the rulings in the democratic response, the white house response, but effectively what they're saying is this, that they see appellate court, 218 rulings are now in the air by some judgments. they are also saying without question that this -- these recess appointments when congress or the senate or in pro forma recess, if you welcome a pro-forma status, that they cannot be considered to be in recess. your reaction? >> to fold. one, the number of cases that are invalidated, it really is an 200, 219, that is the total number of cases. it's only those cases pending before the d.c. circuit that the court refused to enforce. with regard to saying, you know, that the court's decision was unprecedented, the only thing
10:15 pm
unprecedented -- lou: i should explain, which is why jay carney and the white house press secretary said. >> yes. the only thing unprecedented about what was it was the first, no law that the circuit court has ever interpreted what the words of the recess means in a recess caused. and the reason the court did it is because it was faced with president obama is extraordinarily exercise of recess appointment authority when he named these recesses in a 3-day break in a continuous and session. this is why it came to the circuit court. lou: it can to the circuit court, and where do you expect to go from here? it is unclear as to what the administration will do. will appeal and was -- risk having -- well, all of the legal consequences that would flow from my father the feet in either the d.c. court of appeals, full panel, or he supreme court itself. >> lou, i would be surprised if the administration did not take it to the supreme court because, you know, all employers, anyone
10:16 pm
affected by a board decision can appeal it to the d.c. circuit. so anyone who goes to the d.c. circuit will be able to have the board decision not enforced. so, you know, i think it would be incumbent on the administration to take -- excuse me, to the supreme court, and i believe the supreme court is going to affirm the d.c. circuit. i think their conclusion is inescapable. lou: and you at one time, one of two members on the board making rulings, making decisions. and the supreme court eventually making the determination that you have to have at least three out of five rather than just to. i mean, as you are making those rulings, participating in that did you not suspect strongly are no certainly at least in your inner heart and mind that it is crazy to have two people making those rulings? >> no, not really. i thought about that. you know, at the time no one questioned the authority that i or no one questioned will not
10:17 pm
lead mn or my appointment. everyone recognized we were lawfully appointed. the only issue was whether or not we could decide cases as a 2-member board. we had a legal opinion from the office of legal counsel with said that we could. five circuit courts weigh in. for circuit court said we had the authority. one circuit court curiously enough, the d.c. circuit was judged centel writing the decision, and he found we did not. the d.c. circuit decision kind of came late in the date. my recollection is the four circuits came first. lou: and you also have some experience with the idea of pro-forma. sessions as they -- the effort first created by the democrats under the bush administration to stop his recess appointments which was effective against that white house. he decided torecognize that pro-forma continuation of the session. >> that's correct. president bush decided that he
10:18 pm
was not going to question the senate when the senate said that it was in continuous session. president obama was different, and he said that he, you know, could exercisers' as upon a party. it is a broader issue. naming recess appointments. lou: before we get too deep in these weeds, they really did was say that they're going to have to be in recess if you're going to do our recess appointment. they're of -- you have to end the session because otherwise it is absolute fraud if, fakery, and foolishness to believe otherwise. >> tell that to the clerk. lou: i tried from time to time. it's great to have you with us. thank you.

10:24 pm
married into a family of immigrants. i see the good of immigration, how important it is for our future. as most americans, i recognize the critical and immigration system that works has been for our heritage as it is for our history, our future. lou: joining us now, senator marco rubio, republican of florida. great to have you with us. >> thank you. lou: and here we go. are you confident that this is the best path to take going forward? >> well, i think it is important to alamo we have been talking about. is a set of principles as are important in the architecture and the on line of what you want to do, but now you have to work on the details of the bill. that is really where this is going to be important. by the way, whenever we work on as a starting point. there are 92 other senats who have opinions about immigration. house of representatives. and we have gotten away from the process of making law, but it is important for us to follow in order to have a good product. this is a complicated issue. both sides of this issue raised
10:25 pm
legitimate points that need to be addressed. but today was a good first step in what will be a pretty long process in terms of getting the right ideas on paper and ultimately into law. lou: when you talk about going through committees, going through hearings, talking about regular order, that is going to be a departure from their recent history, as you well. are you assured that that is what is in prospect for this important legislation? >> well, i am concerned that if they don't is going to let him into failure. but will be in error is to cook something of secretly in bringing to the floor and give everybody a take-it-or-leave-it proposal. is important we have input. by the way, house of representatives will have some say as well. this is a complicated issue, and i arrived at it basically because i think what we have now is untenable and we have to begin to address it. another of the undocumented issue gets attention, but what concerns me just as much is we don't have a legal immigration system that works for our country and we don't have enforcement mechanisms of work. no sovereign country can be
10:26 pm
sovereign for long if it is not an immigration enforcement mechanisms. we have the reality 11 million human beings that will be interested airlines whether they have documents are not and have to address that as well. lou: senator, i have covered this issue for some long time. i have -- i put forward a syllogism over three years ago. i will exceed to anyone's on this issue. who comports to resolving the syllogism, and it is simply this. if we are to reform immigration laws, we must control immigration. the only land onwhich to control immigration is to control our borders and ports. does that make sense to you? >> it does, and the principles reflects that. the law has to reflect that, the principles do. one thing that we do that is not getting enough attention, really big deal. maybe because i'm from florida it is a bigger deal to me. someone comes into this country and a temporary visa. we know when the command but not if they have relief. on other things i call for is a
10:27 pm
full implementation of the season -- lisa. 40 percent of our undocumented people enter legally and overstay visas. the border is critical to the critically imornt. the border is not just an immigration issue been bigger national security issue that is immigration. finally, the workplace enforcement issue is critical as well, whether it is e-verify, or some other process, if you don't have a control at the workplace forcement you're going to continue to have a magnet for people to come here without documents. lou: senator, one of your fellow senators, ted crews joining the senate this year, expressing his reservations, if i may quote what he has said for our audience's benefit. he said in response the proposal, however, i have deep concerns with the proposed at the citizenship to allow those who came here illegally to be placed on such a path is above inconsistent with rule of law and profoundly unfair to the millions of legal immigrants who
10:28 pm
waited years if not decades to come to america illegally. your reaction and your view? >> well, i have long shared the same concern, and i think that is why we have outlined it the way of we have. will we do here for people who are undocumented is they have to come aboard, undergo background check, pay fines and back taxes and so forth and then all they get is a temporary status basically or think of it as a probationary status that allows them to stay in the country and work, but did not qualify for federal benefits, cannot turn of the citizens to bring anything else and they're going to have to be in a status for a significant amount of time. significant enough so that it is a disincentive to do it in the future for anybody. after that time is a lapsed and after we have a certified that the enforcement things have actually happened because the big mistakes of the past have been in the legalization but have not done the enforcement and i don't ever want to have to do this again. so after both the time has elapsed and the enforcement things have happened, then the only thing they're going to get
10:29 pm
is the ability to apply for a green card, just like anybody else would, not especially, in the regular way by getting in line, qualifying for the reason they apply for, except truck. all we will give them a chance to ultimately earn is the chance to do what they should have been the beginning we just try to enter into legally. in the other point i have made is they can at leapfrog anybody who has applied before them legally..3 in essence, we now want to see a single person has done the right way be disadvantages' as a result. lou: senator, i have to applaud the outline the you have put forward along with your colleagues, the other seven senators in a gang of eight. let me ask you this because you have said previously that it is important to you to seize killed and highly educated immigrants come to thicountry as well. they have been, frankly, if i may, left behind. there are the ones who have not even gone to the shadows at. are we going to see a visa and an incentive approach to bring

such people to our country? they're desperately needed, as you well know. >> i'm glad you asked. tomorrow morning we will be announcing a bipartisan bill on immigration reform friday vises. is the thing -- it is a proposal letting a lot of people find exciting, and is one and i hope will become a part of whatever package ultimately passes because you're absolutely right. the 21st century we cannot have any rate -- immigration system that only six and a half% of the people come here do so based on skill. i am a supporter. that's my parents can't tell that in the 21st century our immigration system has to be more skills base that is right now. i will try to take a first about that tomorrow when we announce what they call the science technology engineering and math the set. lou: terrific. senator marco rubio. great talking with you. we wish you the best of luck. >> thank you so much. lou: more on the immigration proposal, the battle over illegal immigration and what to do about it throuout this broadcast. the president today calling for
